It was a great win for Real Madrid yesterday, a big congratulations to them on there successful season, though right from time I no that Borussia Dortmund will not be able to win real Madrid because real Madrid has more better and experience players who are very consistent, at first I was thinking that Bayern Munich and real Madrid will qualify for the champions League finals but however Borussia Dortmund was very lucky to have been on the same group with PSG, that's why they even managed to get to the finals because if they had been on the same group with either Bayern Munich or real Madrid during the semi finals they wouldn't have gotten this far.

However they played real well on that match but just that they had a very hard luck if not they would have actually score the first goal because the opportunity was right in front of them but they could not utilize it, imagine if they had scored one goal on the first half the match would have actually been more tougher because real Madrid would have been trying to equalize and at the same time hoping to win but Borussia Dortmund made it very easy for them, I also commend on the performance of Vinicius because he is one of the best player of the match and I like his energy.

And congratulations to Real Madrid for successfully lifting the Champions League trophy for the 2023-24 season, a very exciting day for Los Blancos supporters and of course the club and players as well as Ancelotti. In the end, it was Madrid who deserved to be champions after overthrowing Dortmund. Referring to last night's match, it seems that Ancelotti did not really instruct his team to be aggressive in the first half. So, Dortmund had more freedom to launch their attacks in the first half. Unfortunately, Adeyemi and Fullkrug failed to land the ball smoothly into the Real Madrid goal which was guarded by Courtois. two great opportunities, just slipped away. But what concerns me in the Madrid camp is Carvahal. In the first half, he played very energetically with high enthusiasm until he scored a goal to open Madrid's victory. After a goal in the 74th minute, Vini Jr also scored Madrid's second goal in the 83rd minute, and this season's Champions League title belonged to Madrid. In the end, Dortmund had to give up on Madrid in this final match, they again failed to deliver for the supporters and the club. However, their struggle should be appreciated, so far they have shown their hard work. At least, I enjoyed this match quite excitingly. yeah, as a neutral supporter I am happy with the match that is presented.

I don't know where to start, but what is clear is that even if your team dominates from the first half, it will not guarantee that your team can become champions and that is probably what Dortmund feels. We know that their chances were not small and they even pressured Real Madrid repeatedly. Real Madrid almost conceded several times but were lucky they survived.

On the other hand, in the second half Real Madrid seemed to be a different team from the first half and they strengthened their defense even more so their pressing also improved. The result was two goals from Dani Carvajal and Vinicius and this was a highly anticipated result to seal Real Madrid's 15th Champions League title. I think Real Madrid have great luck, but on the other hand, they seem to have the right scenario to win the title in the final round.

Well, congratulations to Real Madrid for their 15th title and of course they are still hungry so next season they will still be chasing their 16th title.

You are not the only one who loved to see Dortmund to lift the trophy, there are many other people especially Dortmund's fans.
I myself wanted to see them beat Real Madrid because I wanted to see a new champion in UCL alltough Dortmund has won it once long time ago.
The domination of Real Madrid in UCL as winner is just too much IMO, basically they are not that special in the final match.
Dortmund played well and could make some dangerous attacks to give Real Madrid a pressure especially in the first half.
Still big appreciation to Dortmund for their achievement this year in UCL, they could eliminate some big names such as PSG and Atletico Madrid.
Of course congrats to Madrid for taking their 15th trophy.

Till date, Manchester United still remains the only club that have defeated Real Madrid in the champions league finals and no any other team have done that before. All of their finals they’ve played in the champions league are won by them and this explains how strong and talented they are in this competition when they’re participating in it. Like Mourinho always said, if you want to win the Champions League, you must make sure that you’ve eliminated Real Madrid if not, you can’t win the champions league with them still in the competition. With their 15th champions league trophy, I don’t think there’s is any other team that can reach that number to overtake them in the coming years, it will really take a long time before this can happen as they’ve even strengthened their squad more for the coming season.

That's proof that Real Madrid have a very good winning mentality. Because anyway, if Real Madrid don't have a great winning mentality, then I sure Real Madrid will lose. Because after all, the fact is that Dortmund managed to play well since the first half also with many good opportunities that Dortmund managed to have. But unfortunately, Dortmund failed to convert their chances into goals. I sure,if for example Dortmund had managed to score first, then maybe Dortmund would have been able to score two goals and win the match. But yes, again and again, the difference in quality and mentality between Real Madrid and Dortmund was evident in this Champions League finalmatch,  so ofcourse Real Madrid still managed to win the Champions League final match this season, and that was completely predictable on paper and there was no doubt.

Dortmund played well in the first half of the match, they dominated the match in the first half, and they had some pretty opportunities that they were supposed to convert into goals. I wasn’t expecting the first half of the match to end in a draw, I expected Dortmund to score at least a goal in the first half of the match, but all the chances that they had were blocked by the Real Madrid goalkeeper. When the second half started, I was thinking Dortmund would continue with their good performance and will be able to score, but things changed in the second half of the match.

After Real Madrid scored their first goal, I knew nothing was left for Dortmund. With the opportunities Dortmund had in the first half of the match, and they missed them all, I knew they wouldn’t be able to equalize in the match.

You do not miss chances when you are playing in a champion league finals and you do not do that when playing against Real Madrid or they are going to make you regret that decision. The previous champions league finals has ended in a one goal winner because the winning clubs took their chances but Dortmund were just playing like they are playing against a weak team. Real Madrid did not play very well in the first half and that was when Dortmund would had used that opportunity to score so they can dominate the game but they did not take the game seriously. The substitution by the Dortmund coach was bad because I observed that the game changed after his substitutions because that allowed Real Madrid to come out into the game and score two goals.

Big Congratulations to Real Madrid it wasn't a easy match they played there, and also Borussia Dortmund played a nice game, they had lots of scoring opportunities but failed to provide a nice finishing, though most of their opportunity were created from counter and they had several one on one with the goal keeper but luck wasn't on their side else they would have made the games to a penalty shootout. Madrid has proven once more that they are indeed the greatest ballers in the European competition, it was a wonder season for them adding the champions league trophy to their league which they ended in the first positions, it shows they are in a good shape. Next season would be a competitive one.

There is no other team as experienced as Madrid on the Champions League platform. This team performed well in the Champions League. It has been very difficult for Madrid to win the Champions League title this season. Real Madrid qualified for the final by defeating the likes of Manchester City. The Dortmund team in the final was also strong enough.

Madrid did not play well in the first half. In the first half we only saw Dortmund's dominance. Although Madrid probably had 64% of the ball possession. However, the players of Real Madrid cannot create too many attacking opportunities. But in the second half we only saw Madrid's dominance. After Madrid scored the first goal, Dortmund had no chance to counter-attack. I would say Real Madrid won this year's Champions League only because of Ancelotti's mastermind. Real Madrid's match strategy was excellent in every match.

It's very hard for a club that is reaching the finals of the Champions League for the first time, to lift the trophy over a club that has reached the finals of the Champions League over and over again by winning most.
When I learned that the Champions League finals would be between Real Madrid and Dortmund, I predicted the match to be in favor of Real Madrid, no matter how Dortmund tries to prove to the whole world that they can beat Real Madrid for the UEFA trophy.
That being said, Real Madrid is in the race of most successful clubs in the world, with their 15th Champions League won trophy.

True, many prediction comparison the match result in Europe League after Atalanta as not favorite team success become the winner, its difference when facing Madrid has slow mode on the first half match but success scoring two goals on few minutes before match ended. Not easy for stopping Madrid to win their 15th Champion League tittle because have much experienced and always win the final match since success qualifying to final in last nine season in a row.

Kylian Mbappe have deal for joining Madrid next season and I can't imagine with how danger of Madrid attacking line, but another interested with some Madrid players won 6 Champion League tittles has opportunity for winning their seven UCL trophy if stay with Madrid from Carvajal, Nacho and Luka Modric.

Everyone except Madrid fans would’ve loved Dortmund to win not because they soo much dislike Madrid but because it’s almost getting boring seeing them win the most competitive competition in Europe over and over again. Dortmund winning would have changed the entire feeling in football last night but even if Madrid were to lose i don’t expect them to lose to a team like Dortmund in the champions league final, only a few teams can actually stop them in stages like this.

Dortmund misused their chances and they simply payed for it, they were punished for misusing their chances. Winning games like this means you should make the most of the chances that comes your way. The loss yesterday was on the attackers in my opinion because they could have changed the entire outcome of the game if they didn’t fail to score.

With the latest signing of Mbappe they will be unstoppable next season and i don’t see them not winning the champions league again next season. Just imagine the level they will be at if Mbappe plays alongside Vinicius and Bellingham, they will be unstoppable. I don’t know how they are easily signing the best players around with no team competing with them at all.

Congratulations Real Madrid you've been to the final 18 times and won 15 times.
This first half match result surprised me, I didn't see it live but I saw the live score until the 65th minute it was 0-0.  It's a bad sign for Real Madrid, because I was confident they could win and score in the first half. But Dortmund did quite well, Curtois was under a lot of pressure but he was outstanding. This condition makes Dortmund deserve to be in the top match, they are able to make Madrid difficult. This result certainly allows Kroos to retire from Madrid happily.

Borussia Dortmund has done their best, but I saw that several Borussia Dortmund players did not seem ready to play in the Champions League final match with high tension, so several Borussia Dortmund players made their own mistakes.

Borussia Dortmund gave their best in the first half but it must be admitted that Real Madrid is a very calm team in any situation, there was no panic from the Real Madrid players when their team was under a lot of pressure in the first half.
And it was Carlo Ancelotti's strategy that in the second half changed everything, Real Madrid managed to control the match and made the Borussia Dortmund players panic so they made a lot of their own mistakes.

This is a quite natural result, there are no surprises, Borussia Dortmund has done their best but it is still not enough to beat the best team in Europe at the moment, namely the Champions League kings Real Madrid.

Real Madrid has truly proven itself to be the King of the Champions League in Europe so that Real Madrid cannot be compared to other teams such as Leverkusen or Manchester City in terms of winning the title. And yesterday this was truly proven for Real Madrid where Real Madrid was successful again in winning its 15th Champions League title this season. And this is truly extraordinary so it cannot be compared with other champions in other league finals this season.

The finals yesterday was somehow similar to Real Madrid second leg against Bayern but the difference is that Bayern was already leasing Real Madrid. I was somehow wondering why Real Madrid gave Dortmund so many free space to allow them override the in the first half which assuming Dortmund are well experienced, they would have netted the post in the first half. However, Real Madrid match is alway till the end of the match that you can see the results, because they can perform magic withing few minutes. I was surprised to see how Dortmund was able to surrender so easiky after Carvajal goal. It shows that they don't have the morale to fight back when they are losing. This was what PSG never knew, if not maybe PSG would have scored first.

Toni Kroos wants to retire while still at the top, not many players want that, and his retirement is even more special because he managed to win two prestigious titles in his final season, and the European Cup will be his last international tournament because he is included in the German squad for the European Cup later.
Real Madrid managed to win according to predictions even though I thought Dortmund would be able to reverse many predictions but Dortmund's performance was not disappointing, they tried to keep up with Real Madrid's game but it cannot be denied that Real Madrid's squad was much better because they had a coach who was very experienced in the final in this big tournament.
Carlo Ancelotti can be said to be the most successful coach at the moment. 5 Champions League titles with two different clubs is an extraordinary statistic.

That is demonstrated even during their best efforts. Dortmund was an unworthy rival of Real Madrid, i was still seeing manchester city as the worthy opponent for madrid this season. Real Madrid won this game cleanly, proving that Dortmund was not even close to being able to defeat Real Madrid at this time and it's also making me feel curious about how do people feel who gamble on dortmund. Unexpected outcome for Dortmund to get to the final when it ought to be losing to Madrid.

I understand their disappointment but Dortmund has to acknowledge that Real Madrid was no simple opponent to beat in the UCL. Real madrid is a battle proven when it came to the final of UCL. For this reason, even if many here were rooting for Dortmund to defeat Madrid, I was picking Real Madrid to win the game.

Unbelievably, they were supporting Dortmund while picking Real Madrid as their favorite team to win. After this game, several Dortmund players are quitting the team.
Next season, Perez wants to win his 16th UCL trophy.

The rise of the boy VInicius Jr is incredible, I remember his debut as a professional player at Flamengo (a team I'm a fan of) as if it were yesterday... he was just a boy and the coach at the time was heavily criticized for not allowing him to play. ... with the money from his sale to Real Madrid, Flamengo can build their training center
